criteria for rise vs. storyline?

Hi all, 

I'm curious if anyone has established criteria that they use to evaluate whether Rise or Storyline is the best tool to build their requested training. 

Beyond the obvious regarding development and functionality abilities (e.g., rapid development vs. more customizable), does anyone have content-specific criteria that informs what tool they use to build their courses?

I work in a compliance department so we've traditionally used Storyline for more 'gated' hand-held overviews of foundational concepts and Rise for content that iterates on those foundations. 

thanks!

    I would love to see some answers for this as well!

    Personally I find myself in Storyline almost always. As you said, more customizable. Also easier for me to make accessible. In Rise I feel like I am more dependent on what's already baked in and I can't change everything I want to without custom CSS and that just isn't my strength right now.

    In Storyline I can almost always solve the puzzle of what I want to accomplish.
